[HELP][BOOT LOGO][SPLASH] How to edit or create new splash screen for Redmi2 - Xiaomi Redmi 2 Questions & Answers

I am currently running CM 12.1
(Used CM13 with RazorKernel For some days which had a bootlogo)
Here's the partition info of our device
Code:

lrwxrwxrwx root root 2016-01-11 17:56 userdata -> /dev/block/mmcblk0p30
As you can see "mmcblk0p18" belongs to splash partiton.
I was successful in dumping splash.img on sdcard with adb shell as:
Code:
dd if=/dev/block/mmcblkp018 of=/storage/sdcard1/splash.img
But now what?
How to edit it?
I've searched for many hours but came up with mediatek or HTC guides which is pretty annoying -_-
Tools I've tried so far--> Android Kitchen, Kernel Kitchen, Logo Builder, nbimg tool.
Please help me through this.. I desperately want to make a splash image for my device.

Which splash? Mi Logo splash? Tux Logo splash? Razor kernel splash I assume? If its Tux Logo splash, it is needed for some LCD types to work. For Mi Logo / Razor kernel splash I think, you must edit in kernel level and compile the kernel yourself.

I want to modify bootsplash too but im soo noob to do that,

Never tried by myself, as your reference, try it at your own risk: https://www.codeaurora.org/cgit/quic/la/device/qcom/common/tree/display/logo?h=LA.BR.1.2.7_rb1.1

Damn I dont have time to download sources and compile the kernel myself
Any other method to edit?
And yes its razor kernel splash (which is that blue thing ) or The Mi logo splash which appears before bootanimation.
But the thing is razor kernel had its splash and Kuma's cm12.1 dont!
Just that default "Linux's Penguin" appears in corner :3
Hope you got what I wanted to say

Okay Thanks for the reply. That's from kernel source I assume.
However I'll see to it

I dont want to flash CM13 now. I'm on 12.1.
Leave razorkernel. I'm not talking about 'only' razorkernel. If he is able to do so others should be too and for defferent kernel.
I've seen threads for bootlogo for motoX etc running lollipop
Anyways, do you have ubuntu? so you can run the script Kuma gave us link of.

Okay now here I am, successfully running that script on windows.
It created splash.img successfully but it was too small in size, around 65 KB :|
The one that i dumped was exactly 10MB.
Then also I flashed it but what I got was dessorted Mi logo and the same Penguin.
Now what? I'll see if I can decompile splash.img that I dumped using PIL.
Any help will be appreciated

Sorry for digging up old thread but how did it go? Did you manage to change default splashscreen?
What ive done myself so far was use X-Plore app with SuperSU access to copy splash file from /root/dev/block/bootdevice/by-name to external SD. In X-Plore splash file was 0b but upon copy it was 10MB.
Then i tried to use tool from other topic nbimg to convert splashscreen from 'unknown' format to BMP but result was bad. The tool is supposed to identify image resolution but it didnt know how in Redmi case (tool was orignally designed for HTC device i think) so i tried using w1280 h720 argument but result was like below:
http://i.imgur.com/sxYl65J.png
Well then i timply took any 720x720 image and used that nbimg tool to convert it to splash and then tried to replace it in /root/dev/block/bootdevice/by-name but on reboot it was reverted back to original

No problem for digging old thread.
I did all the things exactly as what you did and had same results.
I still desperately want to make bootlogos for our belowed wt88047 but I just can't @ketut.kumajaya please just one hint for us and we will figure out rest.
I tried that python script on windows too but same broken splash.

[GUIDE] How to Create Custom Splash Screen (Boot Logo) for Redmi 2
No need to edit kernel.. The kernel has the logo that displays after Mi Boot Logo..
The boot logo (splash screen) is present in a separate partition..

What did you do exactly?
I'll have a look at your stuff and try it right now.
Seems you posted the thread just a while ago.

Can I try the batman logo.bin file inside the zip I pointed you to, through this method?
Also, will taking a Backup through recovery work for this, or do I have to flash the whole fastbot ROM if this fails?
.
P.S - Found this, but am reluctant to try, as I have office in an hour. (Will it work if I have MM 6.0.1 installed as Primary ROM? As is says for KK in that thread)

EDIT - Or will this be more relevant -

Just use his tool no need of any flashable zip or something.
Sorry I didn't get time for your batman logo. I'll try tonight.
Btw, you can make your logo easily with that tool.
After it's compiled, flash is with terminal emulator or just fastboot command
"fastboot flash splash splash.img" and done.

[DEV] thread on LG G Pad 7.0/8.0/10.1

Thought I'll create a thread for developers on LG G Pad 7.0/8.0/10.1
I'll try to keep it updated as best as I can. If I forget/get to busy, PM me and tell me what to change
Help Wanted:
If you own a LG G Pad 8.0/10.1, mind doing the following things? It'll help with kernel development/porting CM11/other ROMs
Dump partition list/info : instructions
Dump /system/build.prop
Possibly need root for stuff below
Dump aboot, boot and recovery partition : need partition list first before posting instructions. probably instructions below will continue to work
Code:
dd if=/dev/block/platform/msm_sdcc.1/by-name/aboot of=/sdcard/aboot.img
dd if=/dev/block/platform/msm_sdcc.1/by-name/boot of=/sdcard/boot.img
dd if=/dev/block/platform/msm_sdcc.1/by-name/recovery of=/sdcard/recovery.img

thanks for this.
@icedmayhem also provided similar files over PM, forgot to post updates here...
anyways, it looks like this device has the patched aboot source code.
loki won't work anymore (loki provides a way for us to bypass the locked bootloader to load non-stock recovery/kernels. This means there isn't an easy way to boot a custom recovery(TWRP) or custom ROM.
Can you check if you can unlock the bootloader? Don't know if LG provides a process to do this easily (for GPE / non-GPE devices)
strings aboot.img | fgrep overlap
The erase group overlaps the max requested for erase
kernel/ramdisk addresses overlap with aboot addresses.
Device tree addresses overlap with aboot addresses.
Boot image buffer address overlaps with aboot addresses.
Signature read buffer address overlaps with aboot addresses.

Here's the link to the purpledrake thread. Once you download and install on your computer make sure the gpad USB mode is on ptp mode.

Yup worked like a champ. Turned on air plane mode, then usb debugging and then ptp. But I had to go to a term win on win7 and run bat file from there. wouldn't run with admin rights from windows explore.

for your G Pad 7.0 AT&T LTE version, mind posting the same items that Hammerhand.17 provided (for the G Pad 7.0)?

One more question, it will work for sure on 4.4.2?
Has anyone tried or been successful pulling a factory image file for the LG V410 which is the AT&T G Pad 7.0? I tried the other day but there was not an image on their servers at that time

Yes! Even if you have already did the OTA incremental update ..... You will need to install a SU manager though like Super SU etc after rooting with Towel root...

LG G Stylo (Boost Mobile) [UPDATED July 27]

Do not use this root method for 5.1.1!! You will get a soft brick and there is no way to recover! If your on 5.0.2 and did not take the update then you can proceed to this root method.
Here is the untouched update to 5.1.1:
udpate.zip
UPDATE: 6/25
BOOST MOBILE HAS RELEASED AN UPDATE! The update is around 413MB. I pulled the update and will be updating it soon. If you are rooted do not update the phone. It could cause a brick and or unroot the device! So far I just found a new radio.img inside of it. I'll check it out later this afternoon.
Hello everyone,
I wanted to make this thread for the LG G Stylo (Boost Mobile) cause I could not find any forums or any post about this device!
Anyways if you are looking for a ROOT method for this device visit here:

Here is how to get into STOCK RECOVERY:
Code:
1) Turn the device off
2) While holding the phone on, press and hold VOLUME -(DOWN) at the same time
3) When you see the LG boot logo hurry up and let go of the VOLUME -(DOWN) and hold it again for a few sec (kinda tricky)
4) Then this will get you into recovery mode
Here is how to get into DOWNLOAD MODE:
Code:
1) Turn the device off
2) While holding the VOLUME +(UP) key plug in the device into the pc
3) A screen should pop up and press the VOLUME +(UP) key until you see DOWNLOAD MODE with the progress bar
4) Done
NOTE: Pull out the battery once your done in DOWNLOAD MODE to get out of it and power the device like normal.

Just tried this root method on the TMO version of this and out didn't start. Curiously tried the manual method for the G3/G4 and i get a device offline when doing an ADB device list.

Make sure you install the right drivers. I had to install the drivers and then restart my laptop. It took me like 2-3 times to finally root the device with the Graphical UI method. On a side note I had to toggle MTP and the other one and then let the drivers install for each one. I then put the phone into charge mode and it finally rooted.
I will give it one more try tonight. I had uninstalled and re installed the LG drivers a few times. I can connect fine to my L90 and my G2. But for some reason this thing shows connected but "offline" in ADB. Toggled back and forth between MTP and PTP a few times too. No response when in download mode ekther.

Any luck Cahiatt on the root? My LG Flex has an issue that I have to send it back for repairs and I've been considering ordering the Stylo. Just need root though for all the stuff I like to do.
Thanks!
Haven't gone back to it yet. Ended up on other chores for the weekend.
Sent from my LG-H631 using XDA Free mobile app
Well the short answer is this worked on the TMO version also.
I don't have a long answer. For whatever reason when I tried again it just worked. There must have been something software related hanging on my desktop PC that was interfering with the port used by ADB or who knows what. I just went back, plugged the phone in and it worked. Woo Hoo!!!!

Can anyone with the tmobile stylo confirm the 2gb ram and 13mp cam?
Im considering this over the g4, more budget friendly.
I have a few questions.
Hows the lcd? Does it show alot of pixelation? Im hearing its pretty good for 720p.
Does it have a notification led?
I know it has lollipop but is it 5.0, 5.0.2 or 5.1?
Pretty good specs for under $300 id say.

LCD is pretty good. I came from a G2 and don't notice any pixelation. Text and video quality is very good. It isn't as bright outdoors and doesn't have auto brightness but am pleased with it.
Camera is 13mp. Pictures seem better than my G2. Better focus.
Does have notification LED.
Running 5.0.2
It does have 2gb of RAM and performs similarly to my G2 before. WiFi and cell reception actually seem better also.
I think it is a pretty solid device for the price. I actually wish it were a little smaller but it is still relatively thin and light for the size.

i might pick one up today. anybody know if twrp is available so we can have a backup in case of a softbrick? hoping xda make a section for this device.
As far as TWRP no one has compiled it for this device yet. The device is pretty new so I would give it some time.

heres the mounts for the tmobile lg g stylo.
and heres a system dump for the tmobile variant. might help get development going.
mega link: https://mega.co.nz/#!R1VwiLiA!GJ2O1Tw-pVw2P8QEHcpM0c464Qlq6Ro8CZty0YAkNs4
I took the plunge yesterday and got the T-Mobile variant. So far, it's been pretty nice. I would ding the camera app a star, though, since it doesn't seem to offer any manual exposure controls. You can choose between standard and HDR mode, and if HDR is off, you can chose off/manual/auto flash. I'm guessing they don't want to steal the G4's thunder. That being said, it takes very nice pictures, and the autofocus is nice and fast.
This morning, I had one glitch: Google Maps and Google Play Music weren't playing any sounds, even though I could hear sound effects when I tapped the screen. I rebooted and the problem went away, and haven't had any further trouble.
I like the screen - it's nice and bright and has good contrast. Sure, it's 720p instead of qHD, but it's plenty sharp for me. The phone seems nice and snappy, and doesn't seem laggy at all. It's nice that the T-Mobile version has 2 GB RAM and 16 GB internal storage.
From what I've seen so far, the battery should hold up nicely. However, the supplied 1.2A charger seems to run a bit hot. I'll be using the 2A charger that came with my Avant instead. I did make sure to unlock the Avant before upgrading; its supplied app unlocked the phone without any hassle.
Overall, for a budget phablet, it's quite good. I had been considering a ZTE Zmax, but I'm glad I held out for the Stylo, even if I rarely use the stylus.
I'm going to have to update my signature.
The lcd is my biggest issue. Even for 720p hd its got alot of pixelation on the fonts. My moto e 2015 actually renders better. :/ i assume this is becuase its a large lcd at 5.7". Wish lg would of gave it 1080p.
Its strong points are the camera and the overall design of the device, very sleek compared to the g3 or g4. Especially the back of the phone. Little choppy performance to but i suspect this is from the 5.0.2 memory leak.
Ill test for a few days before i decide if ill keep it or not. Good budget device though.
Anyone knows if the boot loader is unlocked? I expect the MetroPCS and T-Mobile variants to have one.

Could I also get the output of adb shell cat proc/partitions and a backup of the recovery image. I'm going to unpack and repack the image which will cause the signature to change. If the bootloader is unlocked the image will still boot even after the signature has been modified.
Great to see more people on board. I'm almost positive the boot loader is locked by default. I tried to erase my laf and see if it would boot into fast boot but that was a no go. Let me know if anyone can access fast boot?

Sounds like the same thing on the G4. What exactly happens after LAF is removed? I'm surprised the Send_Command root method worked for this device as it didn't for the G4.
When I removed laf it goes into the first download screen and says hold volume up to get into download mode or something like that. So I keep holding it and it does nothing. I tried to throw in some fast boot comments while its stuck on that screen and it does nothing. One thing I did find interesting is when you boot into stock recovery there is an option to reboot into bootloader but it just reboots the phone like normal.

Partition Dump

I'm trying to create a partition dump, specifically to have a backup of my efs partition. My first 6p had it's efs partition corrupted (while stock, unrooted, locked bl). I've got my new 6p in hand, bl unlocked, twrp installed, and chainfires systemless root up and running. I was trying to follow this guide:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2450045
but i cannot access / using any file explorer. The SU prompt never appears. I tried running cat /proc/emmc, and that was a no go as well. I was able to get the partition list, but only in mmcblkxxxx format. I would like the names, so that i can properly organize the dump. If anybody could point me in the right direction, that'd be awesome! Thanks in advance.
Never mind, I've found it. For other's reference, the correct path is:
/dev/block/platform/soc.0/f9824900.sdhci/by-name.
Hope this helps someone in the future

As you can see "mmcblk0p18" belongs to splash partiton.
I used "dd" command to dump splash.img on sdcard with adb shell.
But now what?
How to edit it?
I've searched for many hours but came up with mediatek or HTC thereads which is pretty annoying
Tools I've tried so far--> Android Kitchen, Kernel Kitchen, Logo Builder.
Please help me through this.. I desperately want to make a splash image for my device.
Thanks.

[SHV-E330S] dd recovery.img to wrong partition

I have a Korean Galaxy S4, model number SHV-E330S. Copied the TWRP recovery.img to /dev/block/mmcblk0p10 but it turned out that 0p10 is the "param" partition, so now the phone cannot connect to cellular network, it shows the circle icon with strike-through. The phone still shows the correct IMEI number when dialing *#06#, and it can connect to wifi networks. Also can boot into recovery mode and wiping the system does not help.
Is there any way to make my phone work?
A bit more context of what I did:
Tried to install cyanogenmod on the phone, but it failed with "Signature verification failed". I thought it is because the stock recovery does not allow to install 3rd party roms.
So I tried to install CWM/TWRP recovery on it using ODIN3 when the phone was in download mode. It did not work, could not boot into CWM, it always started the stock recovery. I saw in the install guides that I can copy the recovery image to the phone with dd if I have root.
So I rooted it with this. It worked. Then I followed the instructions here (came from this site) and executed dd if=/sdcard/recovery.img of=/dev/block/mmcblk0p10
This website did not talk about creating a backup of that partition first, so I did not do that. The cellular network probably stopped working at this point, but I only noticed it later.
The partitions on my phone:

Would it work if I copy the /dev/block/mmcblk0p10 partition from an other phone? What is on the param partition?

If you're rooted you can use the app Flashify to flash the recovery.img. I recommend TWRP though.

Thanks. But it is too late for that, isn't it? The phone is kind of bricked, and flashing a TWRP recovery will not magically unbrick it, right?

How is it bricked?
From what I understood, you don't have signal anymore, but other than that the phone works.
But you are right, flashing a recovery won't make your signal come back, but maybe flashing a modem will.
The param partition is setting where the boot images are stored, from what I've taken in other threads.

As I described in the first message in the thread, I accidentally overwrote the mmcblk0p10 partition which is the "param" partition. Since that the phone cannot connect to cellular network, so cannot make phone calls, cannot receive sms and cannot connect to LTE.
But it shows the correct "IMEI" and the correct "Baseband version" in Settings / About device. It can also connect to wifi network, so I can install/update apps and play games.
I downloaded the stock ROM from samsung-update.com: SKT-E330SKSUCNJ1-20141015090913.zip. It is 1.7GB and it took almost 24 hours to download.
I installed this ROM on the phone with ODIN but it did not help. So the problem is probably not with the "modem" partition since it was overwritten by the stock rom.
And found some details about the param partition here:
PARAM: This is the Parameter partition which contains a number of parameters,
variables and settings of the hardware. Apparently it has an 88 byte header
structure that tell us if the MODEMST1 and MODEMST2 have been backed up to the
FSG and BACKUP partitions, respectively. Furthermore it contain all the debug
settings (DLOW/DMID/DHIG etc), the "triangle" status of whether or not you have
flashed custom ROMs and the flash count (0x3FFE00). Current boot mode in use,
and much more. The info about this partition could easily occupy a book by
itself.

Try using a PIT file.

It turns out the phone is working, but the reception is bad: if I go to a better location then it works, I'm able to make and receive calls.
So the problem is not with the software. Maybe the antenna is spoiled? I suspect that because pulling the antenna out does not improve the signal level.

I would try and change the modem.
Otherwise try fixing the antenna if the modem doesn't change anything.

What do you mean "change the modem"?
I guess the modem's firmware was updated because after I reinstalled the original OS the phone updated itself OTA to the latest 5.0.1 android, and now it shows a different Baseband number than before.
Do you think this could still be a software issue?

People say Modems can change reception. Although I never saw any changes myself.
